Prolonged exposure to occupational noise is a leading cause of hearing loss. This book provides a comprehensive overview of noise-induced hearing loss (NIHL), covering its pathophysiology, prevention strategies, and clinical management. It emphasizes the importance of noise control measures, hearing conservation programs, and early diagnosis to minimize the impact on workers. Designed for occupational health professionals and audiologists, this book is a key resource in protecting auditory health.
Liam Silva is a distinguished dermatologist specializing in the intersection of occupational health and dermatological impacts of noise-induced hearing loss. While primarily focused on hearing health, his research explores how occupational noise exposure can indirectly affect skin health through stress and related conditions. Liam has published extensively on comprehensive occupational health strategies that address both auditory and dermatological well-being. He has developed integrated care protocols that consider the dual impacts of occupational noise exposure.
